Do All Things In His Name
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in
the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God
and the Father by him (Colossians 3:17).
In our opening text, the Apostle Paul was
referring to the instrumentality of the Name of
Jesus; using the Name of Jesus as an instrument, as a
weapon, the way you’d use a knife or any weapon.
Imagine what your life would be like if you lived
every day, doing all things in the Name of Jesus! Imagine
that all your projects were started in the Name of Jesus!
Imagine coming into your office every day, declaring,
“I come in the Name of Jesus!” It immediately takes
away every form of limitation. What a life of success
and glory that is!
The Word is clear: you can do anything in the
Name of Jesus as long as it brings the Father glory. If
you’d live this way, there’d be no fear in your life; you
wouldn’t go to bed at night wondering what might
happen to you, because you’re living for Him—in His
authority. Nothing compares to that; it’s the way to
live the supernatural Christian life.
If there’s a tumour in your body, for example, use
the Name of Jesus as an instrument against it. Say,
“Tumour, in the Name of Jesus, you can’t stay in this
body; I cut you out,” and it’ll go! If you had a problem
with your heart, command it to function normally, in
the Name of Jesus. If you’ve been having trouble at
work, command the storm to cease, in the Name of
Jesus.
His Name is the solution to every problem; it’s the
way out of every quagmire. Even now, declare, “In the
Name of the Lord Jesus, I have the wisdom to function
and deal excellently, to answer questions, and solve
problems. I do the right thing at the right time, in the
right way for the right purpose.” Blessed be God!
Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for every hindrance has been taken away
from my path, in the Name of Jesus. I walk the path of success,
victory, and triumph, because I function, and do all things in
the Name of Jesus. I’m in good health, and at the top of my
game. My life is for glory and excellence, in the Name of the
Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
